RESTAURANT & BAR MANAGER - Luxury Estate Resort | Wiltshire

Up to £50,000 + Excellent Benefits | Permanent

A rare opportunity to lead Food & Beverage within one of Wiltshire's most prestigious private estates.

New Resource Recruitment are delighted to be representing a highly regarded luxury estate and resort in Wiltshire in the appointment of a Restaurant & Bar Manager.

This is not simply a role overseeing a restaurant.

Our client is looking for a genuine hospitality leader who can take ownership of a premium dining and bar operation, develop a strong team and help shape the next chapter of the guest experience.

The property combines luxury hospitality, destination dining, leisure, spa and events within an exceptional private estate setting. With ambitious plans to further elevate its service proposition, this is an excellent opportunity for an experienced F&B professional who wants to make a genuine impact.

THE ROLE

As Restaurant & Bars Manager, you will have significant responsibility for the performance, standards and people within the restaurant and bar operation.

You’ll be a highly visible presence within the business, leading from the front, setting the tone and ensuring that exceptional service is delivered consistently.

Reporting into the senior hotel management team, you’ll oversee a sizeable front-of-house operation and work closely with the wider hotel, culinary and events teams to create a seamless guest experience.

This is a role where your leadership will be felt on the floor every day.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Take ownership of the day-to-day restaurant and bar operation.
• Lead, inspire and develop the Food & Beverage team, creating a culture with extremely high standards at all times.

• Take ownership of guest feedback and ensure issues are resolved quickly and professionally.
• Manage staffing, rotas and resource levels across a busy seven-day operation.
• Drive commercial performance through effective service, upselling and revenue initiatives.
• Maintain strong control of labour, stock, waste and departmental costs.
• Work closely with the culinary team to ensure food and beverage service is seamless.
• Support the delivery of events, functions and wider resort operations when required.
• Champion training, coaching and development across the team.
• Maintain the highest standards of presentation, hygiene, licensing and operational compliance.
• Act as Duty Manager when required, contributing to the smooth running of the wider property.

THE PERSON

We’re not necessarily looking for someone who has simply held the biggest job title.

We’re looking for someone who gets hospitality.

You’ll understand that luxury isn’t about being formal for the sake of it. It’s about anticipation, consistency, attention to detail and making guests feel genuinely looked after.

You’ll ideally have experience as a Restaurant Manager, F&B Manager, Senior Restaurant Manager or similar, within a quality hotel, restaurant, resort or destination hospitality environment.

• Strong operational restaurant or F&B management experience.
• A natural ability to lead, coach and develop people.
• High personal standards and exceptional attention to detail.
• A genuine passion for guest experience.
• Commercial awareness and confidence managing departmental costs.
• The ability to remain calm and decisive in a busy environment.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• A hands‑on, visible management style.
• The ambition to continuously improve standards rather than simply maintain them.

Above all, you’ll be someone who takes pride in what they do and wants to be part of creating something exceptional.
